Application Information

SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC PS

is ideally suited for:

• Cove lighting

• Stairways

• Hallways

• Display cases

• Wall wash

SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC PS operates
PENTRON T5 lamps with optimum
energy savings at lower light levels.

SYSTEM PS ballasts contain QUICK­SENSE ballast technology, a patented
circuitry designed to shut down the
system reliably and safely when
lamps reach end-of-life.

Setting the standard for quality,
SYSTEM PS is also covered by our
QUICK 60+®warranty, the first and
most comprehensive system
warranty in the industry.

System Information

SYLVANIA QUICKTRONIC PROStart System
advantages:

• Operate from 120V through 277V

• Eliminates “wrong voltage” errors

• Reduces ballast inventory by 50%

• Utilizes Programmed Rapid Start
operation for:

• Longer life

• Over 100,000 switching cycles for
occupancy sensor and building
control systems applications

QUICKSENSE ballast technology helps to
protect against overheated bases and
sockets, as well as cracking of the glass
wall, and uses dynamic end-of-lamp-life
sensing to avoid false shutdowns caused
by some static sensing methods. QUICK­SENSE ballast technology will auto reset
when the end-of-life lamps are replaced
with new ones.
